“I Met My Wife When She Was About Writing WAEC” – Notorious Kidnapper, Evans

Notorious billionaire kidnap kingpin was christened Chukwumeme Onwuamadike but chose the pseudonym Evans, which later relegated his real name to the background. Although he claimed that he adopted the name while in secondary school, the alias later became a ploy to cover his tracks as a notorious kidnapper, who also had a dangerous voyage into the deadly world of armed robbery and drug trafficking. Evans was as sly as a fox and as a dangerous as the foamy race of ocean surge. below is what evans said about his marital life

“I was already married during this time, the name of my wife is Precious, I met her in Nwagwu in Nnewi. So looking back now, it means I must have been married for over 11 years and my first child is over 10-year-old. Once I met my wife, we didn’t date for too long like that.

I dated her for just about six months and married her. She was in SS3 when I met her and she was preparing to sit her WAEC examination but once she got pregnant for me she had to stop anything that has to do with schooling and I went to pay something on her head (dowry).

It’s a lie that I have other wives, I have only one wife.” When asked if his wife knows about his life of crime, he simply said: “I didn’t want my wife to know and I have been very careful to hide my identity as Evans from her and my children up till the time of my arrest.

But now that I am in police custody and everything is out in the open, I don’t even have any knowledge on their whereabouts.” Asked if anyone else knows about his heavy involvement in kidnapping, drug trafficking and robbery, he said maybe only his mother.

“The other person I can talk about who knows about it is my mother. But I have not seen her for a long time, she is suffering from stroke.” So with all the money at his disposal and the love he said he had for her, why hasn’t he flown her out of the country yet? His direct answer was simply: “She is not interested.”

Paraded alongside six members of his gang including Uchechukwu Amadi and his wife, Ogechi as well as Chukwudi Nwosu alias Skido from Abia State, 36-year-old Felix Chinemerem also from Abia, Chukwuemeka Ikenna Bosah who is 28 years old and from Anambra State and 42-year-old Bayelsa State-born Suoyo Paul aka Nwana who was touted to be the gang’s armourer.
